Saw a local news story about people's converters are being stolen. Thieves are cutting the things off while the cars and trucks are sitting in the owner's driveway. Seems that there is platinum inside those damn things. Small amount, but platinum all the same. Didn't know that. Crackheads unite! - Og

 

Hah...I WISH I would catch someone trying to cut off my cat in my driveway, They would have 4 hot ones in there chest faster then they could plug that sawzall in.

 

I wish I could do that, but unfortunately all I can do in that situation is call 911 and yell at the guy. To get out of the murder your life would have to be in danger or a third party's life. Also you can not cause the confrontation or provoke the man to grab a gun and then you shoot him down. Laws suck, but unless you want to go to jail for life, then I would suggest just calling the police and maybe buy a taser so you can shock the hell out of him. At least you won't go to jail for life with that one

 

As satisfying as that may seem, death is permanent, but torture is fun!
I would subdue the person, and then hook a battery charger to their nuts.
I would wrap their body in duct tape too, only because it is a b|atch to get off!

Dr. Evil..............

 

Torture IS fun!

We've had a recent rash of tailgate thefts from the same type of scumbags..................

 

Spray the TURD with Pepper Spray! That will stop him til the Police Arrive! He will be glad to go with them by that time!..............

 

Got some bad news for who ever rolls under my truck to get the cats....i aint got any!! haha jokes on them!

 

Screw platinum... rhodium is where it's at!


Introducing.... the CAT CLAMP

 

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Accually guys my state has the "castle doctrine" law, which states if my life is threatened or someone is on my property without my consent i can legally use lethal force. (this EXCLUDES the mail man, ups, ect...)

There's about 5-10 grams of platinum in most catalytic converters today. I don't know what value that translates in to as far as precious/scrap metals.

 

30 dollars a gram, so almost 300 dollars.

 

hell if you see them under your truck, just use your remote start.. that would probably scare them to death.

 

They can have fun trying to get under there and cut mine out. but then again a crackhead weighs about 110lbs

 

Mine too. Who would have thunk lowering the truck would be a theft deterrant.
